ONE YEAR OF BLOGGING

Today is the first blogiversary of AGT! Time has just flown by. This little blog of mine still feels new and gives me jitters every time i hit publish on a post. Writing this blog is probably the most unexpected ride i have been on in my life, but i am glad that i did it. I first wanted to start a blog more than a year ago, and i have been writing one for a year now. Guess that's one regret off the table for the future me.

QUINOA + BROCCOLI STIR FRY

Tee & I are trying to include more greens in our diets nowadays. While buying a juicer helped a lot, i still want to include more veggies in my lunch meals. Sticking to eating greens, i made this broccoli stir fry with quinoa today for lunch, its a quick & easy meal idea and a healthy one too. 

Many might not like the flavor of quinoa. Who am i kidding, it has no flavor, its quite bland especially for an Indians taste palate like mine. The same goes for Broccoli, Tee dislikes it. But i like broccoli when they are roasted or stir-fried, and thats how i came to try this recipe. I used onions with a bit of garlic and chilli powder to bring in the flavor.

FLORAL SKIRT + MASTERING MULTI-COLORED OUTFIT WITHOUT GOING OTT

Its spring, and a post featuring a floral print is long overdue. Although my recent obsession is cherry blossoms(my Instagram is loaded with pics of cherry blossoms), I don't own any cherry blossom prints in my wardrobe, but i do have this floral skirt which is my favorite(previously seen here and here). I decided to go all colorful for this look, so opted for a cute pink top with ruched sleeve detail and bright yellow clutch. Kept the shoes neutral with tan sandals. 

COTTON KURTA AS SUN DRESS

 

Two style posts in a row featuring black and white dresses. Are you beginning to notice a pattern in my spring style? This sun dress in a breathable fabric, cotton(my favorite), is actually an Indian Kurta i bought from my India trip last year. I love the pattern/print on this kurta featuring a cobbled stone street which reminds me of the streets of Old San Juan in Puerto Rico, where we went for our honeymoon. And its unusual to find such an unique pattern in an Indian kurta, and thats exactly why its hanging in my closet right now.
